Several things of note (aka I'm lazy and I don't want to write a full blog entry)

Friday a good number of UCI's TA's were on strike.

The TA's are part of the UAW (Union of Auto Workers)...

ANYWAY, this is apparantly a yearly thing, and it didn't affect any of my classes, so no problem.

In American Gov't we got told a bit about the four branches of the US Gov't: The Legislative, which makes the laws, the Executive, which enforces the laws, the Judicial, which checks the constitutionality of the laws, and the Media, which criticizes the laws as being ineffective or immoral.

Heh, only being a bit cynical.

Did more programming in scheme, and cursed the language for being a complete mess in the mathematical sense (you write 2+2+3 as (+ 2 2 3).

Was driver for a bunch of people who wanted to go to a local mall. 7 passenger cars are fun :).

Blew off my ICS lab for three reasons: The TA wasn't there to help us, I can do the programming at my room just as well as anywhere, and the Giants were tied with the Marlins going into the 9th.

Yeah, that's about it. Want more info? Ask for it in a comment.

Oh, yeah, Valve was robbed this week.

BTW: Valve is the maker of Half-Life, one of the best FPS games ever. They're making Half-Life 2. The source was stolen...
